To Love and War

      Ivory was in her room changing when there came a knock on the door, immediately she covered up and spoke gently, informing whoever was there to wait a moment.  When it was Maybella who told her who was waiting, she was suddenly filled with excitement and demanded she come in and close the door behind her, and so Maybella did just that, even locking the door behind her. 


        Maybella ran up to her favorite girl and finished tying up the back of her dress, moments later they were a pair of giggling and gossiping schoolgirls.  Ivory checked herself once more in the mirror and the two ran for the bed where they jumped atop the mattress, holding hands as if they were the last two on a sinking ship.
